The rape case against Nelly may be closed, but that doesn't mean the controversy is over.
It seems that all of the evidence collected in the troubling case against the Hot In Herre artist has been released by the Auburn Police Department. In addition to photos of the alleged crime scene, surveillance videos from the night in question have also been released.

As you may have heard, after law enforcers completed their investigation, prosecutors chose to drop the case as accuser Monique Greene refused to testify. With the case being closed, officials were able to release the visual footage which linked Greene and Nelly.
Per the video (below), the hitmaker and the Washington local can be seen leaving the Seattle-based nightclub where they met. Later, footage depicts the industry vet and the woman getting on to his tour bus. The final shot shows Monique exiting the vehicle and seemingly calling the cops to report the rape.
Greene has since filed a lawsuit against Nelly for sexual assault and defamation. This legal move came after the 43-year-old's legal counsel announced their plans to sue the 21-year-old.
Police documents from the case shows that Monique and Nelly painted their encounter in VERY different lights. According to TMZ, Nelly told the police that the oral and vaginal sex they engaged in was totally consensual. He even noted that Greene removed her own clothing. During the statement, the recording artist said he used a condom and didn't ejaculate.
The rapper even accused Monique of getting upset because she thought he was involved with one of his dancers, who was supposedly on the bus at the time.
Monique's account couldn't be more different, as she claimed that Nelly aggressively removed her pants and threw her onto the bed. He allegedly told her:
"You're gonna take this dick."
During the forced sex act, which reportedly lasted 30 minutes, Nelly said to Monique:
"That's my pussy."
She also told the police she believes Nelly ejaculated inside her, in addition to on her back and front.
She also says Nelly tried to buy Greene's silence as he offered her $2,500 and asked her to stay on the bus with him until their next stop. Greene refused the money and told Nelly she wasn't a "prostitute"
Per Greene's account, someone else pushed her off the bus and Nelly threw a $100 at her. Nelly acknowledged that he gave Greene $100, but said he handed it to her.
We're sure this is all information that'll be used in Miz Greene's suit against Nelly. Be sure to stay tuned for more updates from this troubling story.

The rape case against Nelly has been dropped and the rapper now plans to pursue legal action to clear his name.
The 43-year-old “Hot in Herre” rapper was accused of raping a woman on his tour bus while in Washington state. He was arrested on October 7 and has since maintained his innocence.
“The formal close of the investigation into the false allegations made against Nelly is of course welcome – however expected,” Nelly‘s lawyer said in a statement to JustJared.com. “We were confident, that what our investigation revealed from the outset of this allegation would ultimately be clear and Nelly would be vindicated. A thorough investigation did show Nelly was a victim of deceitful allegation devoid of credibility. Credible evidence did show this accuser to be deceptive. We have been in constant communication with the King County authorities and welcomed and appreciated the diligence in which the authorities proceeded. Leaving no stone unturned.”
“Nelly recognizes the need for women who are victims of sexual assault of any kind to be heard and our existing systems changed. Nelly supports various women’s advocacy groups that deal with Sexual Assault, and violence against women and is dedicated to raising awareness and furthering the conversation to about bring about necessary changes. However, this type of reckless false allegation cannot be tolerated as it is an affront to the real survivors of sexual assault,” the statement continued.
“Nelly has suffered very real damage to his reputation. He has incurred economic loss and painfully has watched his family suffer. As a result Nelly is planning to proceed with litigation as the first step in restoring his reputation,” the statement concluded......»»

Nelly has landed in trouble once again.
As we reported, the rapper recently got off the hook for rape charges after the alleged victim refused to testify in court. Now, the Hot In Herre performer is facing another criminal investigation as he is being accused of sexual assault in England.
The incident is said to have gone down on December 5 (two months after the alleged tour bus rape) after his show at Cliffs Pavilion in Essex. The alleged victim claims Nelly placed his arm tightly behind her while taking a photo, before asking her to stay and talk to him in another room.
Related: 'Celebrities' Whose Names You Wish You Didn't Know!
After she and her friends went to his dressing room, Nelly supposedly invited just her to yet another room next door, where she says he pulled his pants down and began masturbating. She claims he put his hands on the back of her head and shoulder, forcing her head down on his erect penis.
The victim also claims he tried to take her top off and kiss her, but she ran from the room as he called her a "cunt".
She says she didn't go to the cops immediately out of fear she wouldn't be believed.
The celeb's lawyer, Scott Rosenblum, responded to the allegations, telling TMZ:
"These allegations arose after Ms. Green amended her suit for money to include a reference to these claims. The fact that the police are investigating these claims is not new information and Nelly welcomes a thorough investigation. Nelly is confident that once investigated, these claims will be determined to be disingenuous. Nelly was accompanied by his girlfriend during this tour and she was at his side throughout. It is important that police investigate every allegation of this nature."
We'll keep you posted as the case progresses.

Now, The Blast is reporting Greene filed court documents requesting the rapper's defamation case be dropped because she says she did not defame the rapper as her statements were true and also protected by freedom of speech. The 25-year-old would like the celeb's case to be dismissed and her original case to continue.
She also points her finger at Nelly's girlfriend, Shantel Jackson, who she claims corroborated his alibi to "further his defamation campaign" against her. As you may remember, shortly after the incident went public, Shantel released a statement saying she was "at the venues, in the dressing rooms, and on that tour bus," and that all the claims were "false."

As has been reported earlier this morning, the rapper was arrested on a second-degree rape charge early this morning while on tour in Washington. He was booked into jail, but ultimately released without being charged.
And hours later, his lawyer released a very strong statement denying the allegations.

But now, Nelly himself has chosen to speak out about the situation, too.
Here's what he had to say this afternoon through his Twitter account (below):

Apparently, after the woman was invited onto the bus, she was in Nelly's room when he tried to have sex with her -- to her objection.
She said no, and he allegedly responded with saying "shut up," telling her he wanted to have sex without a condom.
She objected to that too, but she alleges that he did the deed anyways -- and after he was done, Nelly offered her money.
The woman turned him down, but the rapper is alleged to have thrown $100 at her, and told her "you gotta go," as he booted her off the tour bus. Whoa.
Of course, that's not at all how Nelly's camp is seeing the events of Friday night.
The rapper's lawyer, Scott Rosenblum, had a very charged statement for TMZ in response:
"It does not surprise me that she wanted to have her story publicized. That is playbook 101 of a person with an agenda and clearly she has one. The agenda is money, fame and notoriety ... we will be able to show by objective evidence and unbiased witnesses that she has zero credibility. She's a person who is making a dangerous, fraudulent allegation to accomplish her own goals."
Their camp is going to go after her pretty hard, we'd guess.

Women still won’t let the spotlight on sexual assault in the entertainment industry die. The entire nation is possibly on the brink of being dragged into World War 3 but making sure a man asked if it was okay first before fondling your titty is way more important. I could think of a thousand more interesting topics to do a documentary on than sexual assault. I’m not saying that sexual assault isn’t a serious offense, but holy cow we get it. You’re now beating a dead horse. Women want to be allowed to craft an entire career using their tits to get ahead and the moment the amount of money offered isn’t enough to justify an overweight director ejaculating onto your armpit hair, it’s assault. Somehow the majority of these men always fit the same description. Guys who women would always swipe left on 10 out 10 times in every Tinder search unless his profile picture was his bank account. Mariska Hargitay plays a detective on TV instead of interviewing real detectives who handle real sexual assault cases, we rather listen to Mariska’s take on it.
Hargitay, who stars as Detective Olivia Benson in the police procedural “Law and Order: SVU,” has turned her clout as an advocate for victims into the upcoming HBO documentary, “I Am Evidence,” where she also serves as producer.
“I feel like I was given a gift with this role. I was given a platform. It was a way for me to respond. I’ve had the privilege of having had so many survivors share their stories with me, and I feel a responsibility to that,” Hargitay said.
She admits backing the documentary was driven by her “own outrage” of the way victims of sexual assault are treated by the system. “People say, ‘why did you make this movie?’ I said because I was really mad,” Hargitay said.
Hollywood women are always victims and documentaries like this just reinforce the idea that regret also counts as rape. Where’s the outrage for men when they’re victims of extortion attempts by women who’ve felt like they were wham, bam, thank you ma’amed. There’s not a patriarchal conspiracy going on that elite women suggest. Being accused of sexual assault sounds heinous on paper and it’s an accusation that follows a man around forever, even if it wasn’t true. Women are sucking all of the fun out of casual sex. Maybe Mariska can make a game show called “Is It Sexual Assault?” instead. Contestants can give feedback and score points if they correctly guess whether common sexual practices can be considered assault. And I’ll finally get my answer on whether or not sticking my finger in a hole made with my other hand to attract the attention of a girl at the bar is inappropriate or not.

The LAPD is re-opening the investigation into Hollywood mogul David Guillod.
According to TMZ, a warrant has been issued to collect the DNA of the Atomic Blonde producer in connection to claims made by actress Jessica Barth that he drugged and raped her in 2012.
As we reported, the Ted star claimed she went to dinner with Guillod -- who has since been accused of sexual assault by three other women -- and a friend, drank a lot of wine, and woke up at her home with "six hickeys" on her neck.
Related: Nelly Under Criminal Investigation For Alleged Sexual Assault
In the investigation docs, officials add that Barth went to the hospital for a rape kit and the exam revealed bruises on her thigh and forehead, along with potential saliva on her breast and neck.
Barth said she asked Guillod if they had sex and he said no, but admitted they did have a makeout session.
The initial allegations were investigated and the case was closed in 2014 -- but after "new allegations" surfaced, the LAPD decided to re-open the investigation.
Related: Reese Witherspoon Says Women Were Swapping #MeToo Stories For DECADES
After Barth's accusations went public in November, Guillod stepped down as co-CEO of Primary Wave Entertainment. Shortly following his resignation, three more women came forward with similar allegations of being drugged and raped.
A big misfire in the original investigation, officials noted, was that they never collected a DNA sample from Guillod, so they are looking to do that now.
Time certainly seems to be up for Guillod, who is also reportedly under investigation by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office for allegedly raping a former employee in 2014.
